Introduction to Fractals: Geometric Fractals	Lesson: Outlines the approach to building fractals by cutting out portions of plane figures.
Patterns in Fractals	Lesson: Introduces students to the idea of finding number patterns in the generation of several different types of fractals.
Patterns in Pascal's Triangle	Lesson: Shows students that number patterns exist in the Pascal's Triangle, and reinforces student's ability to identify patterns.
Coloring Multiples in Pascal's Triangle	Activity: Color numbers in Pascal's Triangle by rolling a number and then clicking on all entries that are multiples of the number rolled, thereby practicing multiplication tables, investigating number patterns, and investigating fractal patterns. Coloring Multiples in Pascal's Triangle is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.
Pattern Generator	Activity: Recognize patterns in a series of shapes, numbers, or letters. After determining the pattern, the student fills in the missing pieces. Three levels of difficulty are available.
Tessellate!	Activity: Create a tessellation by deforming a triangle, rectangle or hexagon to form a polygon that tiles the plane. Corners of the polygons may be dragged, and corresponding edges of the polygons may be dragged. Parameters: Colors, starting polygon.
The Chaos Game	Activity: Play the Chaos Game by experimenting with probabilities. Learn about an apparently random process with a not-so-random, geometric fractal result.
Tortoise and Hare Race	Activity: Step through the tortoise and hare race, based on Zeno's paradox, to learn about the multiplication of fractions and about convergence and limits to an infinite sequence.
